The Gold That is in the Sea,

Ine GOl0 Inat is III Sne sea .
On October 8, 1897, the Latine,
commanded by Captain Skynner,
went ashore on the bank OF the Fly
Island, and G140,000 went down with
the vessel.
In the reign of James II. some
English adventurers fitted out vessel
to search and weigh up the cargo of a
rich Spanish ship which had been
lost on the coast of South America.
They recovered G300 900, which had
been lying at the bottom OF the sea
forty-four years. A medal was struck
in England in honor OF this
event in 1887. In 1867 Dutch
East Indiaman foundered and $780,
900 were lost. The price of four such
Armadas as that of 1888, went down
in the eighteenth century, in the
shape of gold, silver, and plate. She
was the annual register ship, as the
term then was, and had in her 500 900
piastres and 10000 ounces of gold on
account OF the king, and twice that
sum on the merchants account, max
ing her very rich ship. She foun-
dered, and no man escaped to tell
how and when. The sum of 100000
sterling, besides jewels of great value,
were lost that same year in a ship
from Australia. A part OF the money
was recovered. This dreadful ship
wreck is referred to in Dickens Gun
commercial Traveller" The sea has
a habit of concealing its plunder, but
science is slowly gaining foothold,
even at the bottom of the sea, and no
doubt, in time to come, foundered
ships carrying down great treasure
will have to yield them up again.

The Ideal Home.

The ideal home beautiful is attained
rather by avoiding errors of taste than
by the adoption of dogmas of art. For
my own part, if have any dogmas to
preach they may fairly be condensed
in this rule: "Avoid shams and affec-
tations of all kinds"
Don't mistake some prettiness for
beauty; millinery, for instance, is out
of place in the home beautiful.
Don't attach to your chairs and sofa
cushions meaningless bows of ribbon,
which tie nothing.
Don't dress up your toilet table in
muslin petticoats stiffened with crino-
line or colored calico.
Don't scatter startling white tides"
about chairs and sofas, as on SO many
bushes, as if you were hanging out
the wash to dry.
plates and dishes. They were never
meant to 60 there. An exception may
be made now and then in favor of a
piece of fine color to help light up the
room, or where a delicate china paint
ing is worthy of careful examination.
But hang up ordinary domestic china !!
DON'T
Don't hang small pictures so that
their beauty is lost to any one under
eight feet high. If a picture is not
seen from the same position that the
artist saw it when he painted it the
drawing will appear foreshortened and
the general effect consequently falsi-
fled.
Don't hang any pictures in the
home which have not the impress of
elegance, purity and cheerfulness.
Don't give place to representations
of corpses, tortured saints, or any
thing occasioning painful emotions.
And, above all, having such pictures,
and wanting them down-stair, don't
Danish them to the nursery, school
room, or be iroom.
Some things l would relegate to the
bedroom-out of the way somewhere
in locked drawers. for instance. l
mean mementos of seaweed and
dried ferns or flowers and wretched
daubs on china, canvas, or paper, the
crude efforts of youthful members of
the family. No true lover of the home
beautiful will inflict these on his
family and friends, and compel them
to violate truth by pretending to like
them.
Don't admit into the home beautiful
any piece of furniture or implement of
every day life which does not honestly
serve its purpose-no light, flimsy
chairs, which an able-bodied man
dare not sit upon; no puffy, debilitated
sofas, all wind and springs; mo bur-
nished, brass-sheeted fire irons,
bought only to look at, and give place
to the ugly little black poker and
shovel when coal is to be broken or
ashes are to be removed.-[Journal OF
